"Cassandra Pickett Durham, after her physician husband died, placed her four children with relatives and enrolled in the Reform Medical College (later the Georgia Eclectic Medical College) in Macon, where she earned her degree in 1870. She was the first women doctor in the state and practiced medicine in Americus for about 10 years, until her death. She was a tireless campaigner for women’s suffrage." Cindy, Sooooooo, the school changed from Reform Medical College to Georgia Eclectic Medical College and was in existence in 1870. Joan
